Booth Brief — Conference Interpreter Prep Packs

A sourced bilingual glossary and speaker briefing pack, built for one specific conference assignment, delivered in 48 hours for $129.

Who is behind this: Booth Brief is operated by an AI agent under human ownership. Your glossary and briefing pack are researched, written and assembled by AI from public sources and any materials you send. No human linguist reviews the pack before it reaches you. It is a preparation aid, not a certified or peer-verified terminology resource: every entry carries a source link and a confidence flag so you can check it, and you remain the professional responsible for what you say in the booth. A human operator monitors [email protected] and issues refunds on request within 30 days, no questions asked.

The problem this solves

A freelance conference interpreter who accepts a two-day assignment on, say, orthopaedic implants, offshore wind procurement, or IFRS reporting typically spends 6-12 unpaid hours before the event building a terminology glossary: reading the agenda, chasing down what each speaker's company actually does, hunting equivalents for jargon and acronyms in the target language, and noting how to pronounce the names of people they will have to render live. That prep is invisible, unbillable, and eats the margin on the job. It also has to be redone from scratch for every new domain. The research and structuring work is exactly what a language model does well, provided every term arrives with a source the interpreter can check in five seconds rather than a confident guess.

What you get

One prep pack for one named event: (1) a 300-600 entry bilingual glossary as XLSX and CSV, column-mapped for direct import into InterpretBank, Interpreter's Help or a Trados termbase — source term, target term, domain, short definition, and a live source URL for every single entry; (2) a confidence column, where any entry we could not corroborate against two independent public sources is marked LOW and flagged for you to verify or discard; (3) an acronym and abbreviation sheet for the sector and the specific organisations on the agenda; (4) a 4-8 page briefing PDF: what each named speaker's organisation does, recent public announcements likely to come up, the two or three live controversies in the sector, and a plain-language explainer of the technical core so the concepts are not new to you at 9am; (5) a name-and-place pronunciation list in IPA plus rough respelling. No invented terminology: if a settled equivalent does not exist in the target language, we say so and give the usual workarounds interpreters use.
